Mitchell continued to work as a producer on several posthumous Hendrix recordings, including “Rainbow Bridge” and “The Cry of Love”. After Hendrix died, Mitchell continued drumming, appearing with Hinkleys Heroes and several other groups. He worked with Led Zeppelin, Bruce Cameron, and Jack Bruce, among others. He was awarded a spot on a “Rolling Stone” list of the greatest drummers in history.

He died in Portland, Oregon, on November 12, 2008, just a few days following the end of the tour.
